Church Universal and Triumphant - In Scholarly Perspective (Paperback)

Church Universal and Triumphant is a new religious movement in the Theosophical tradition. Since moving its headquarters to Montana in the early 1980s, the Church has frequently been in the news, for everything from illegal weapons purchases to the construction of controversial fallout shelters. Most recently it has been sensationalized in the media as the "next Waco." During the summer of 1993, a team of academic specialists conducted a unique, interdisciplinary study of this movement to, in part, determine whether the general public perception of this fascinating new religion was accurate. This volume reports the results of that study.
